Plants and photosynthetic algae and bacteria use energy from sunlight to combine carbon dioxide (C02) from the atmosphere with water (H2O) to form carbohydrates. These carbohydrates store energy. Oxygen (O2) is a byproduct that is released into the atmosphere. This process is known as photosynthesis.
Water and Carbon Dioxide. In a molecule of water, oxygen is by far the more selfish element. It shares four electrons with two hydrogen atoms. If we assign all four electrons to oxygen, we find that oxygen has an oxidation number of -2, while the hydrogen atoms have an oxidation number of +1. In the compound carbon dioxide, one atom of carbon is sharing eight electrons with two atoms of oxygen.
